FAQs
Are these shoes suitable for athletic sports?

What is the best way to clean the white suede?
Use a dry suede brush for regular maintenance and a dedicated suede eraser for light stains. Avoid using water or general-purpose soaps.
Do these shoes run true to size?

Can I put these in the washing machine?
No, machine washing can severely damage the suede material and compromise the structural integrity of the shoe.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To keep your adidas Tobacco shoes in top condition, proper care is essential. Since the upper is constructed from suede, avoid wearing them during heavy rain or in muddy environments to prevent permanent discoloration. To clean the exterior, use a soft-bristled suede brush to gently remove surface dirt. For deeper cleaning, utilize a specialized suede eraser or a mild suede-safe cleaning solution, always testing on a small, inconspicuous area first. When not in use, store the shoes in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to prevent the material from fading or losing its shape.
